Sarah Brightman: Dust in the Wind

I close my eyes
Only for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
(all we are is dust in the wind)
Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
(everything is dust in the wind)

love the above words.

but i want to know if everthing is nothing but dust in the wind, why so many people are trying so hard to chase the dust? where could we find the gold that might be left in the wake of the wind? what's the meaning of life? how about love and all that being cherished and pursued?

i want the answer.

Life is meaningless, since there is nothing new under the sun; but only people who realize this will do something to make their life meaningful.

Talking about the song, "dust" and the meaninglessness of life reminds me of the poem Elegy Written in the Country Churchyard by Thomas Gray.

Sorry啊，多事来翻陈年芝麻谷子。只不过上次去了Sarah Brightman的Harem演唱会，对她印象挺深刻的。多嘴几句。不过还是最喜欢还是她跟Andrea Bocceli合唱的Time to Say Goodbye.
